Chronic Electronic Cigarette Exposure Promotes Atherosclerosis and Chondrogenic Modulation of Smooth Muscle Cells

2025-09-17

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Electronic cigarette (E-cig) use has reached epidemic proportions worldwide, yet its cardiovascular consequences remain poorly defined. While several lines of evidences in human epidemiological and animal studies suggest chronic aerosol exposure accelerates atherosclerosis; the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying this pathological remain unknown. <h4>Methods</h4> We exposed hyperlipi...
